ABSTRACT:
A triggering pin is connected between the steering column cover and the ignition switch lock, or a glass bead is held between the ignition switch lock and the ignition switch lock mounting assembly, of an automobile including a steering column lock. When either the steering column cover in the area of the ignition switch lock or the ignition switch lock itself is removed, the triggering pin or bead, connected to a trigger wire, triggers a switch that removes power from a propulsion system function necessary for the driving of the vehicle. In addition, where the automobile includes a conventional security system, the triggering of the security device trips a switch to provide power to the conventional security system. Power may also be provided to a hood lock spliced onto the hood release cable that, when actuated, prevents the cable from moving.
